Chapter 7
After wandering in the forest for two hours, he found a Giant Vulture near death. His wings were broken and there was blood too, he looked at the Vulture and asked: "Do you want to live?" the Vulture looked at him confused, but the Devil's deal was too sweet. With the voice of a middle-aged man, he said: "I want to live." Haruno smiled and used his skill [Soul Connection] on the Vulture and stored him in the one room of his Room Room no Mi. He entered the room as well, the room was very simple, a giant bed where the Vulture currently was and nothing else. Everything around him was white, the ground and sky indistinguishable. The Vulture had already fainted, Haruno used on him his [Temporary Recovery Buff (Blue)], the only (Blue) recovery buff that he had. He then left the room and walked back to the house where he lived with the bandits now.
After some days, the Vulture was as good as new! His wings that were broken were now in perfect condition and his
Ace was stunned, Luffy looked at Haruno with his s.h.i.+ning 'What's that?' eyes and asked: "Who's that bird?!" Haruno smiled. He pointed to Gaharudo and said: "Luffy, this is Gaharudo. Gaharudo, this is Luffy. And that idiot in mid-air is Ace. Say hi to them!" Gaharudo nodded and shouted a 'haa' sound. Ace was a little stunned, Haruno lowered Ace to the ground slowly and when Ace touched the ground he started to run away again and Luffy shouted: "Ace!" Haruno smiled and walked toward the house. He said to Gaharudo: "You can live here, you can even hunt when you wish so. you can literally go wherever you want, but when I call for you, you need to come." Gaharudo nodded and flew away.
Haruno tamed another bird, a normal crow. He asked the crow to follow Luffy every day. Three months later, Haruno touched the crow's head and the memories of the crow appeared in his head, Luffy running behind Ace and finding the Grey Terminal, the ma.s.sive junkyard of the island. Haruno smiled and used his skill [Soul Connection] to send a message to Gaharudo. After waiting for a few minutes, Gaharudo appeared... He had double the size of a Giant Vulture now... Well, he asked to take him to the grey terminal, Gaharudo nodded and Haruno mounted him to fly to the grey terminal.
When he arrived at the grey terminal, he saw Luffy in the distance and said to Gaharudo: "Thank you, Rudo. You can enter the room now." then he used his Ak.u.ma no Mi and created a portal to his room for Gaharudo to enter, Gaharudo nodded and entered the portal, vanis.h.i.+ng. Haruno smiled and followed Luffy from a distance, Luffy was shouting: "Ace! Ace!" all the time, searching for him, after an hour searching he saw Ace entering the forest again. He obviously followed and Haruno followed once again. Haruno made his crow, Kuroni, search for the BlueJam pirate, Porchemy! Haruno doesn't really want to follow the plot and let Luffy be tortured... But he needs to follow the outline of it. Just enough so that Ace and Sabo will trust Luffy... Haruno had an idea! He called all the rats of the grey terminal and used his skill [Soul Connection] with the biggest and strongest rat, making him the leader of the rats! Haruno smiled and said to the leader rat: "Your name will be Qwuoro. I want you to follow all my orders. Follow me." Qwuoro nodded and all the rats followed behind the small kid, there were perhaps thousands or maybe even millions...
He waited until Luffy was captured by the BlueJam Pirates and Ace and Sabo had switched the tree that their treasure was in. When they were resting he appeared, Ace was stunned at first, but then he asked: "What do you want?" Sabo looked at Haruno with a confused expression but didn't say anything, then Haruno asked: "Where is Luffy?" Ace, with disdain, answered: "I don't know." Haruno smiled, Ace and Sabo felt cold sweat run down their spine and Haruno said: "If something happened to Luffy... You two will pay for it." then he looked behind himself and toward the sky. Then he said: "Qwuoro! Come here!" Qwuoro left the bushes he was hiding in, a giant rat the size of a cat... Ace and Sabo were stunned and Haruno asked: "Search for Luffy. All of you." Qwuoro nodded and made a *squeeck* sound before several rats left the bushes, running toward the grey terminal.
